Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

Elon’s team tapping into the Treasury’s payment system is like hacking America’s bank account. No billionaire should have that kind of access to public funds. This isn’t disruption—it’s a threat to democracy. Who’s really in control if one man can slip into the government’s wallet?

If you wanted to decrease the cost of homes, one thing you wouldn’t do is put a flat tariff on your main source of timber.

Basically, all of Kash Patel's hearing was like this:
Dem Sen: You said on the "Tightest Whitie Podcast," quote, 'I'm going to use the FBI to hunt down Trump's enemies, period, full stop, it's as simple as that, no more, no less." Is that your intent?
Patel: That was taken out of context.

A reminder: the GWBush Admin built a prison at Gitmo not because of its size or facilities, but on the theory that because it was not in the US, US laws would not apply, and because US didn't recognize Cuban sovereignty over it Cuban law didn't either. It's a stateless, lawless zone of impunity.
Trump: Today I'm also signing an executive order to instruct the departments of defense and homeland security to begin preparing the 30,000 person migrant facility at Guantanamo Bay

At a press avail, President Trump was asked about why he would ask NATO members to up their contribution to 5% of GDP when the US doesn't do that, and he said, "They're not protecting us, we're protecting them."
The only time NATO invoked its mutual defense pact was after 9/11, to protect the US.
